Canadian Skilled Worker Immigration Waiting Time From UK

Anyone with an idea of the waiting time for canadian skilled worker immigration from uk. i visited cic site for the average period but experience of people on this will be okay .

The average times given on the CIC site are for applicaitons filed prior to Sept 07 - around 2 1/2 - 3 years.

They have started to send out request for updates to some August 06 applicants.

For applicants since Sept 07 acknowledgement of receipts have been quoting 42-48 months before they contact you again as that is when queue becomes much longer due to various reasons quoted elsewhere on this site.

New immigration proposals mean no one knows what will happen to wait times for people applied post Feb 08 - could be a whole new ball game.

There will most likely be an election in the autumn and things could well change again, depending who gets in.

THANKS FOR THE TIME SHARED.

MINE IS JULY 06, BUT I HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANY UPDATE NOTIFICATION FROM THEM. THOUGH I DO UPDATE THE OFFICE ON REGULAR BASES.

Some May 06 people haven't heard - some Aug 06 have. There is no ryhme or reason. You can't be far away now though.
